Can you imagine Nigel Bruce of the Sherlock Holmes films married to Rita Hayworth in this 1940 film? Ridiculous, but that describes this film exactly.
Joan Crawford gave an over-the-top performance here as Susan, a wealthy woman, who neglects her husband and daughter Blossom. Blossom. What a name for the child. She is hardly blossoming with those horn-rimmed glasses. Crawford tries to emulate a mix between a Katharine Hepburn and Billie Burke. It just doesn't come off.
The plot is thin at best. A woman who has neglected her family and been off to Europe discovers religion and upon turning home, she wants a divorce but she also wants to teach everyone about her religious awakening.
The film is just another replica of life among the idled, bored rich with so little to do in life.
